Go trains!
Night trains are horrible however. I'm too tall for the births, we had a 20 year old French girl with vicious BO who was talking on her cell phone at 1 in the morning and wouldn't shut up despite me snapping my fingers in front of her face. We bought a case of beer for every single night train ride and would pound it in the hallway so that we could pass out for as long as possible.

Yeah, f*** night trains. I am 19, and had to share one with three 40+ year old guys. It was one of my worst nights, the other in Greece. The one Indian guy was snoring the ENTIRE night, and so loudly I couldn't fall asleep. The guy below him was nice enoughto hit the bed above him, and he gave me some earplugs. But it didn't work. I am 6'3 so the "beds" are uncomfortable, but I can manage. I almost missed the bloody train too, I got on and it literally pulled away 3 seconds after I stepped on, I was that close!
Trains through Switzerland, Germany, France, Spain, Amsterdam, were nice though.
